wassup Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Anyone watching this show on Sci-Fi Channel? Looks really good. Here is more info on the new mini-series. Anyone watched the original Frank Herbert's Dune miniseries on Sci-Fi that aired 2-3 years ago? IMO, that was amazing. I've only watched apart of it though, dont have the time to watch it all. sry for posting so many threads
Lunatic Jedi Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 I'm watching part 3 of Children of Dune right now! This is so cool! My friend went berserk when he saw that they made Leto about 16 instead of 7. I guess it would be cooler to see a 7 year old kid kill a gigantic tiger... but its so impossible to find a half-decent child actor these days, its not even worth trying. As far as I'm concerned, Leto's still cool!
wassup Posted March 19, 2003 Author Posted March 19, 2003 I am definitely buying this miniseries (along with Frank Hurbert's Dune miniseries) on DVD when it comes it. What really first attracted me to Dune was the sandworms, I was like . Then I came to appreciate more of the story.
Taos Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 I was just watching it a little bit ago......it's a great show. Or at least it seems like it. I love the original movie. I remember watching it a long time ago. It is great to see it continued like this in this mini-series.
Lunatic Jedi Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 Holy crap! Leto's running all fast like and stuff! Holy crap! HE'S ALL FAST AND STUFF! WOAH! HES LIKE THE ROAD RUNNER!
wassup Posted March 19, 2003 Author Posted March 19, 2003 LOL...I cant believe how much I'm missing while Im doing my crappy HW...aargggggggg...
Lunatic Jedi Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 HE WAS SO FRIGGIN FAST! Too bad they had to get another guy to play Stilgar. Well, the new Stilgar is cooler.
TheHobGoblin Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 I finished watching it. That was so damn awsome. Baron is dead. wow.... I saw the old Dune then the remake, It's all cool:D I still wish Pual was alive
Dath Maximus Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 man i missed the remake of dune the first was crappy but it had patrick stewart children of dune was good in my book *Dath's eyes go bright blue with spice*
XERXES Posted March 19, 2003 Posted March 19, 2003 i almost saw it but fell asleep...i seriously didnt mean to either
Samuel Dravis Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 children of dune spoiler: paul is alive. he's that blind dude. i have the scifi channel dune on dvd. it was ok, but the story was too good to fit into a movie...
Pnut_Man Posted March 20, 2003 Posted March 20, 2003 I love the Dune series, I'm reading God Emperor right now. I thought they did a good job with Children of Dune, Maud Dib's sister was pretty hot in my opinion I look forward to the continuation!
Darth Groovy Posted March 21, 2003 Posted March 21, 2003 I never understood Dune. I saw the film, maybe I should have read the book, I just don't know. I saw the movie once, then again with a narator, but the narator didn't help, I still got lost. I gave up on it at that point. Unless I can get my hands on some cliff notes or something.... I dunno.....
Azrael Posted March 21, 2003 Posted March 21, 2003 No, Paul dies at the end of the 3rd episode. He gets offed by some loser peasant. That part made me cry.
Dath Maximus Posted March 23, 2003 Posted March 23, 2003 all i know is tomorow from 10 am to 10 pm its a dune marathon on sci fi. first its all 3 parts of dune, then all 3 parts of children of dune my vcr is gonna be working over time
gorganfloss Posted March 23, 2003 Posted March 23, 2003 Tha was a pretty cool mini series. I usually dont like Dune, but for some reason I watched the entire marathon on SciFi...every last showing of the same stuff...I must have been really bored... I didnt like how they killed off Paul at the end by that loser peasant guy...oh well, at leat the dude got stabbed a bunch...
Lunatic Jedi Posted March 23, 2003 Posted March 23, 2003 Well, that seemed like more stabbing than was needed. I think Gurney has some problems with anger management.
Darth]-[azard Posted March 23, 2003 Posted March 23, 2003 Yes, he does. But he had a perfectly good reason. Anyone considered the possibility of Player models based on the characters of Dune, Old and New. Leto vs. Maul?
